Hi Patrick, 

There is a package called "Utilities`Notation`". I am not sure, whether
it is already included in Mathematica 3.0 (look at the Help Browser -> AddOns ->
Extra Utilities) or must be downloaded. 

The documentation can be found at:
  http://documents.wolfram.com/v4/GettingStarted/NotationMaker/None.html

You should to be able to create the notation you are looking for with
this package.

Hope that helps.

Regards, 
Harald
